Ray, Vuscan does now do OCR.  I've had great success with it.  Ann Robertson

It creates rtf files that you can then open in Text Edit.  I'm glad I didn't 
shell out $299 for Docuscan Plus.

Re: Issues with VueScan 9.x

2011-06-12 Thread John André Netland
Krister,

You have to set the format to Text under the Input section, and check the 
checkbox for "OCR text" under the Output Section. Remember that the checkbox is 
to the right of the label, not to the left, like you might expect. Also, set 
the language to Swedish in the Prefs section. You don't need to open anything 
else then VueScan to begin.

Hope this helps!

Take care,
John André

Uh, well, sounds to me like your not running OCR at all.  YOu need to run

and that kind of stuff. I have a problem, though. I can't seem to open textedit

textedit as external text editor. Do i have to also start textedit before using
